(a) Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to restate the definition of “Debt Rating” contained in the definition of “Applicable Rate” in its entirety to read as follows:

 

Debt Rating” means, as of any date of determination, with respect to BearingPoint, either Moody’s “issuer rating” (which as of the date hereof is Ba2) or S&P’s “corporate rating” (which as of the date hereof is BB+) for non-credit enhanced, senior unsecured long term debt (collectively, the “Debt Ratings”); provided that if a Debt Rating is issued by only one of the foregoing rating agencies, the Debt Rating of such rating agency shall apply and provided, further, that if a Debt Rating is issued by each of the foregoing rating agencies, then the lower of such Debt Ratings shall apply (with the Debt Rating for Pricing Level 1 being the highest and the Debt Rating for Pricing Level 6 being the lowest).


(b) Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby further amended to restate the definitions of “Alternative Currency Sublimit”, “Available Amount”, “Consolidated EBITDA”, “Letter of Credit Sublimit” and “Pledged Interests” in their entirety to read as follows:

 

Alternative Currency Sublimit” means (i) with respect to Committed Loans, an amount equal to $10,000,000 and (ii) with respect to Letters of Credit, the Letter of Credit Sublimit less the Dollar Equivalent of Committed Loans advanced in an Alternative Currency.
